[Verse 1] Left you yesterday all the way to Santa Fe Crossed the desert night and say to be with you Red skies,sunset and sunrise Say things in those ways And take another day Oh I got you
[Chorus] The heart is black and mine is blue Lord knows what love can do My eyes are red my mind is weary My tongue is tied and I can’t speak clearly I love you dearly and I’m still hanging on My heart is broken filled with pain I’m in New York City in the pouring rain Things have changed and I still feel the same The heart is black coz mine is blue Lord knows what love can do
[Verse 2] My eyes are red and my mind is weary My tongue is tied and I can’t speak clearly I love you dearly and I’m still hanging on My heart is broken filled with pain Sun is shining no sign of rain Blue skies of east are plain And I’m back in love with you
[Chorus] The heart is black 'cause mine is blue She knows what love can do What love can do
